hi all
Doctors rocks is a fantastic and easy place to find a good bit of gold. Its safe, fun and close enough to most centers on the north coast and easy enough for anyone to get some. There is gold all along the ismuth at any tide. But the best gold is out deep. hence the lows.

this is about all that's good for the next couple of months, In September a few super low 0.2 days are coming up. and will make getting right out much easier. But late at night mostly.

The pick of the bunch is
Sat Night 31st October, 2200 0.08 40 cm lower than this month or next

perhaps we could have a trip before winter and another in the spring? the best lows, on a weekend, at the right time of day, only happens a few times a year. i guess that's why the best gold is still available where it is.

hi thats sounds great to me. I have to go to Hobart the same day so may have to leave early. To have a target date is perfect, thanks. its over 1000km from Queeny via the north to Hobart and back again the same day is pretty huge. Tasmania is a big state. And good mainland practice for me it is.,

The SDC2300 is a phenomenal detector in tassie and elsewhere, and congratulations on getting one.

i have hit targets with my x terra at doctors rocks and this time., i will dig it, just to prove it is possible at Doctors rocks if nothing else. The sdc2300 will be an asset to all and being waterproof and more tuned to the type of gold to be expected, will rock it.

been wanting to do doc\rocks for a long time but didn't know where or how. thank's phil. look forward to seeing u guy's there.
i'll be there 9 am . Heading up from if launceston anyone want's a ride. cheers.

That sounds great to me, There is another location in Tasmania on the North Coast well before Doctors Rocks was known about. And sizable gold was found on that beach too. I had to use Bass and Finders maps to re find it as some of the names they originally gave landmarks, have changed over the years. But the formations are still there to map off. Someone had a look recently and only found lead sinkers. However some sizable nuggets where reported in the day. i cant imagine they got every single one of them, so may be another trip sometime? Doctors rocks goldfield was found and worked in 1930, so a relatively new discovery. The other beach deposit was worked much earlier in the late 1850's and ended up moving inland in search for gold. You can get to it easily in a car and then walk a few km into it. So need to time the trip in and tides.

Evidently there was also a discovery east of Penguin and another at Sulpher Creek. I've never been there but maybe somebody else knows something about those sites. Might be worth a look, they are just off the hwy.

hi itassie, i'm afread i'm having some car issues & my wife needs hers for work saturday so as things are at the moment i'm looking for a ride myself.
if i can get my car sorted by saturday i'll let u know. cheers

Hi guys, I might meet yas there with my 2 boys again, would offer yous a lift but will probably stay at my brothers place at Wynyard Friday night, unless you have somewhere to stay out that way, will let you know if my plans change for a morning trip will know more tomorrow. Cheers Pete

I cant get to Doctors rocks tomorrow..! sorry. hopefully its a great day for anyone that can make it.

I have to work down the west coast again. We put on a new chef so i could get days off and he didnt work out too well. So i have to take up the slack. Sorry, i just did 14 days straight and am not sure when i will get days off till we get someone to fill in down here.
